Yep... bit the bullet and ordered this from SSC today. Just too bad- ass to pass up.
who made that lifesize yodaHere's some pics:
Got mine last week and unpacked it this Easter Sunday. It's one A-W-E-S-O-M-E statue. Love it!!!
My wife found the power button pretty quickly, and we knew we had to get the back battery panel open to take out the battery protector. However we had an awful... I mean awful time getting the back panel off that battery case. The little tab was stuck solid. We used fingers.... a tiny screwdriver... tiny pliers... thumbs... knives etc. Nothing would work. We worked on the thing for like half an hour. It was tough because we didn't want to break Yoda in the process!
Finally, my wife got the thing popped from the bottom and it unsealed. However the little tab device at the top was so stuck it STILL wouldn't open. I finally got a tiny screwdriver deep in there and was able to unjam it from the top.
Once we got it open, the rest was a one second deal. And the statue works perfectly. The little battery panel snapped right back in and is fine (although we did rough up that little tab on the panel door... there was simply no way to help that from happening.) But now the thing actually pops in and out fine and there seems to be no problem with it. Since the panel is going to be well hidden under Yoda's robes in my display room forever and ever... I'm okay with it despite the intial defect.
It was just frustrating!
Dear Collectors!
What do you think, will this beauty worth as high value as like Boba Fett PF Statue?
Because in my local shop I can buy it for 278$
Sideshows original price was 350$ and it is sold out.
Thanks!
